ONE DAY TILL LAUNCH... Earlier this morning, the Atlas V rocket carrying the Curiosity rover was rolled out to its launch pad at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. Less than 24 hours remain before the Atlas V roars to life and sends Curiosity on its way to Gale Crater on Mars. Don’t know about you guys but my excitement for this mission is quickly building up (moreso, that is)... Can’t wait for tomorrow!
